Stu Larsen Going Back To Bowenville Lyrics
Going Back To Bowenville by Stu Larsen
[Verse 1]
When I was a little boy
I was so shy and resolute
Someone knocking at the front door
I'd go and hide in my room
And if you call me on the telephone
I wouldn't wanna talk with you
Yeah, when I was a little boy
I was so shy and resolute
[Verse 2]
And when I was 17
I felt like I had it all
I left school, I moved towns, I got a job
Working in a grocery store
I didn't wanna go too far
And I never really wanted more
Yeah, when I was 17
I felt like I had it all
[Chorus]
Now I'm a little older
And I feel more like a man
Now I'm a little wiser
I can find my way back home again
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where people know your name
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where everything stays the same
Bowenville don't change
[Verse 3]
And when I turned 26
Well, I just walked away
I think about it all the time
What if I had've stayed
But there's nothing that a man can do
To rewind his yesterdays
Yeah, when I turned 26
Well, I just walked away
[Chorus]
Now I'm a little older
And I feel more like a man
Now I'm a little wiser
I can find my way back home again
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where people know your name
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where everything stays the same
[Outro]
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where people know your name
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where everything stays the same
[Iutro]
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where people know your name
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where everything stays the same
Bowenville don't change
Bowenville don't change
When I was a little boy
I was so shy and resolute
Someone knocking at the front door
I'd go and hide in my room
And if you call me on the telephone
I wouldn't wanna talk with you
Yeah, when I was a little boy
I was so shy and resolute
[Verse 2]
And when I was 17
I felt like I had it all
I left school, I moved towns, I got a job
Working in a grocery store
I didn't wanna go too far
And I never really wanted more
Yeah, when I was 17
I felt like I had it all
[Chorus]
Now I'm a little older
And I feel more like a man
Now I'm a little wiser
I can find my way back home again
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where people know your name
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where everything stays the same
Bowenville don't change
[Verse 3]
And when I turned 26
Well, I just walked away
I think about it all the time
What if I had've stayed
But there's nothing that a man can do
To rewind his yesterdays

I'm going back to Bowenville
Where people know your name
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where everything stays the same

I'm going back to Bowenville
Where people know your name
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where everything stays the same
[Iutro]
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where people know your name
I'm going back to Bowenville
Where everything stays the same
Bowenville don't change
Bowenville don't change
